Biography
Natascha Engel was born in West Berlin, West Germany to a German father and English mother, and, after her parents' divorce, she moved to Kent with her mother. She worked as a German, Spanish, and Portuguese translator, and she volunteered for Amnesty International while living in Madrid, Spain. She later became a trade union liaison officer, and she was elected to the House of Commons in 2005 as the Labour MP for North East Derbyshire. She supported continued European Union membership during the 2016 Brexit referendum, and she lost her seat the next year due to the lack of a post-industrial Labour support base in her constituency.
